Hi all, I am very new to this group. I have a voip application (softphone) which uses narrowband codecs (G.711 and G.729).Even it has explicit voice quality enhancement dsp modules (Baackground noise reduction , Automatic Gain Control and Acoustic Echo Cancellation) the quality of the speech is not yet satisfactory. After doing a long term research to get better speech quality on this I decided to go with a wideband with variable bitrate codec. From this group I gathered lot of information about wideband codec as well as speex. Could anyone please help me to get rid of the following doubts.... 1. Can I use speex directly in my application like narrow band codecs? 2. Is there any modifications needed in the speex code? 3. How much flexible speex is? -- Thanks & Regards Vijay Sukumaran Nair. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

If you want to support wideband, all you need to do is sample at 16 kHz instead of 8 kHz and use a wideband codec.> 2. Is there any modifications needed in the speex code?Modifications for what? Using wideband? Should work out-of-the-box for you.> 3. How much flexible speex is?Very. Multiple sampling rates, bit-rates, variable complexity, ... Jean-Marc
